'Teen Mom 2' May Be Back Much Sooner Than We Thought

It's happening! It's really happening! Rumor has it that the much anticipated fifth season of Teen Mom 2 finally has an air date on MTV.

Get your remote controls ready, folks! It shouldn't be long now!

The season we have all been waiting for could be here as soon as January 20! That's the word from The Ashley's Reality Roundup (which also reported that Teen Mom 3 is done-zo recently).

So, could it be true? Well, the schedule is looking likely. For starters, Generation Cryo, the reality series about a teenager looking for her sperm donor dad, is slated for just a six-week run in the Teen Mom slot on Monday nights. Considering it began on Monday, November 25, that leaves things open come January.

Typically MTV has aired a 16 & Pregnant season directly following a Teen Mom season, so Generation Cryo was a surprise to begin with. When we asked MTV about the series just last month, a spokesperson told us "we have not confirmed or announced" a new season of 16 & Pregnant.

Then again, they also told us they had not "confirmed or announced" a fifth season of Teen Mom 2! But we've seen plenty of evidence that the show is coming back. We're holding out hope for January. It's been too long without Jenelle, Kailyn, Chelsea, and Leah on our TV screens!
